Memory Quilt

A family memory quilt created by God's grace the year before my Mother passed away. It includes photos of my parents, their parents and siblings and then the 5 children. The 4 girls are in each corner. My brother in the lower center. If I created such a quilt today it would have been crazy quilted!

This is a piece that should be shown to the whole family, extended and close. What an undertaking! Great job. I could not have done this - I am sewing machine challenged, lol. Thanks for sharing a neat idea and your family treasure.
